News

Schneider allowed four goals on 35 shots in a 4-1 loss to Detroit on Sunday.

Impact

The normally solid netminder was an absolute disaster to close out the season, allowing an excessive 20 goals over his last five games -- all of which amounted to losses. Schneider's 20 wins in 60 appearances aren't entirely shocking considering the lackluster Devils squad in front of him, but his 2.82 GAA and .908 save percentage were by far the worst marks since becoming a full-time NHL netminder. That said, owners in keeper leagues may have a tough decision on their hands heading into next season.

News

Schneider was named the starter for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Red Wings, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

Impact

He'll look for a strong finish to an otherwise miserable campaign. The Devils went after stud playmaker Taylor Hall in the offseason in a blatant attempt to support the New Jersey tenders, but Schneider has gone 20-26-11 with seven fewer wins than last year. Worse yet, his .909 save percentage is the weakest value he's had since entering the league in 2008-09.

News

Schneider got ripped for seven goals on 28 shots in Thursday's loss to the Penguins.

Impact

The Devils' unremarkable offense put up a rare four-goal effort, but Schneider squandered it en route to his 12th loss in a span of 14 starts. It's been a tough season for the veteran netminder, and he's certainly not ending it on a high note. Schneider will most likely make one more start, with Saturday's home game against the Islanders seeming likelier than Sunday's tilt in Detroit.

News

Schneider will tend the twine against the Penguins on Thursday, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

Impact

Schneider gets the unenviable task of trying to shut down the league's best offense -- Pittsburgh is averaging 3.37 goals and 33.9 shots per game. The silver lining for the netminder is the number of high-profile injuries currently impacting the Pens' lineup, but so far, that hasn't seemed to slow them down.

News

Schneider made 38 saves in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Flyers.

Impact

It was an aggressive, fight-filled game and his mates found the penalty box far more than the net. Schneider is now 20-26-11 on the season and both his GAA and save percentage are inflated over his career averages. Schneider's keeper status remains solid, but his one-year value is a bit queasy.

News

Schneider will guard the goal for Saturday's matchup in Philadelphia, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

Impact

Schneider and Keith Kinkaid will keep their game-by-game rotation going, as the latter will draw the start for Friday's away game against the Islanders. Neither New Jersey goalie has been particularly sharp of late, and Schneider has allowed three goals in each of his last two starts, losing both (one in overtime). He'll look to turn it around against a Flyers squad that currently ranks 17th in the league with 2.64 goals per game in March.

News

Schneider saved 33 of the 36 shots the Jets sent his way Tuesday, but he also gave up the only shootout goal.

Impact

The losing has to feel brutal in New Jersey, and some of it is on Schneider's shoulders. He's gone 1-8-2 with an ugly .898 save percentage over his last 12 appearances, which is enough to make most fantasy owners think twice -- maybe three times -- before using him.

News

Schneider is slated to square off against fellow goalie Connor Hellebuyck at home against the Jets on Tuesday.

Impact

Schneider will look to help New Jersey snap a three-game skid, while the Jets are looking to build on Sunday's 2-1 win over the Canucks. Given that Schneider has just one win in his last 11 starts, however, he's a speculative fantasy play Tuesday.

Impact

News

Schneider assumed the starter's net Saturday ahead of the evening's home contest against the Hurricanes, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

Impact

Backup tender Keith Kinkaid was the last one to represent the Devils in goal -- he took a road loss to the Maple Leafs on Thursday -- so Schneider will try for a better outcome facing a Carolina team ranked 19th in the league at 2.61 goals per contest. Schneider has gone 5-8-3 with underwhelming peripherals (2.68 GAA, .915 save percentage) over 17 games in 2017. There's no disputing that Schneider is a talented backstop, but this has been a forgettable campaign for the 31-year-old Massachusetts native.
